Huehuehuehue it’s always funny to watch the the look of despair on the gringos face when they see our electric showers (brazilian here btw). It’s something we’re already used to, like the australians playing with their deadly animals. Normally these showers are safe, you only have to be careful while you are manipulating them (months ago I almost got myself electrocuted while repairing my brother’s shower, he turned off the wrong electric switch).

Fun fact (a positive outcome): since most of the foreign countries dont use this technology, brazilian companies developed an up-to-date technology in electrical resistence and circuits for temperature control, which in consequence, are also largely employed in the ceramic industry (trust me, I’m an engineer).
